Residents displaced by sink hole receiving checks Thursday

Displaced
residents in Assumption Parish now have a new day and location to pick up
assistance checks.

The massive
sink hole at Bayou Corne continues to prevent them from going home.

Because of
overcrowding at the pickup site last week, Texas Brine said Worley Catastrophe
Response will now be giving checks out Thursday at the St. Joseph the Worker
Church Hall in Pierre Part from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Texas Brine
also said it has started an enhanced air monitoring program in the Bayou Corne area
Wednesday.

Officials
said crews will use hand-held monitoring devices at each house to test the air
quality.

They said
they will check the air quality at each house twice a week until further notice.

Here in the city that's home to "University-6," as the University of Louisville is identified in a federal criminal complaint filed by the Acting U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, the feeling of devastation is exceeded only by anger and disbelief.
